Probably. This excludes 502 and 518, because they are Express services. -

Seriously most bus routes from CBD ought to have last bus at least after 2400.Most of SMRTB svs dispatch last bus at 2330 which I believe has room for improvement. It's obvious if it's school holidays.
Yes. -

I'm not sure as to why the extension of last buses, But is it nesssacary to extend both 97 and 133's timing? And considering 133's last car from Shenton way starting at 2400, Isn't that too late, considering people are at home preparing for work tommorow?
Can someone who is versed in the SBST operation elaborate, Thanks.
when there is demand, SBST will extend the timing.. there bound to be people who want to take buses at this timing.. think only a lot of SMRT buses service all have their last bus at 2330only...

2330 I think it's fair as most people should be back home, The latest is 2350 which is 856,969 and 0030 which is 858.

Even SMRT decided to cut back 178 to 2330 from Boon Lay from 0000.30 & 154 still departs e last bus at 0020.

The last bus timing for 858 to reach Woodlands back from Changi Airport, Yishun or Sembawang was almost 0130 hours already. -

Not a lot. I think plenty of the SMRT buses services have their last bus hours after 2330 hours. -
fact is yes a lot of smrt services that depart from town are at 2330. notably 190 700A 960.
Actually last bus of 133 is 0015hrs from esplanade to amk. the extension of hours from shenton way is to cater those going home from MBS. MBS last bus 133 will be extended by half hour instead. Those from esplanade onwards will not have any impact on these changes.
TIB 781 L: yes 2330 most people would be home. but how about those who are not home and want a cheap way to go home? and how about on fridays, saturdays and key PH eves?
Gus.chong: 502 518 last bus is 2400hrs from delfi orchard/TTSH. Last full route is 2200hrs.
As what sbst275 says, if any bus route from CBD area is before 2400hrs, it should be extended to 2400hrs from town. if its after 2400hrs, then let it be. -
Even 170's last bus from Ban San is 0010.
For Upp Bt Timah/ Bt Timah folks

Services like 171 and 857 (heading towards Yishun) end pretty early at around 2330+ from Esplanade and I often miss the last 857 but luckily there is 133 which is still operating :)
